  • I grew up in New Bedford, Massachusetts, and I'm a huge Red Sox fan. I've probably been to Fenway 40 times. I've been pretty lucky as a sports fan because the Patriots have won Super Bowls and the Red Sox have won World Series during my lifetime.

  • The European Tour plays all over the world: from the U.K. to China, from Korea to South Africa, and from the Middle East to southeast Asia.

  • When I was 13, I told my dad I wanted to move to Florida to attend the IMG Academy. I wanted to be a golfer, and that's hard to do in New England where I could only practice half the year.

  • My dad is just like everybody else's dad. I see him as kind of a goofy guy with a great sense of humor. I try to get in a battle of wits with him, but he always gets me. I emulate him because I've never seen anyone work as hard as he does.

  • I was born in Massachusetts. I live in Stillwater. I went to school in Florida.

  • Golf has always been a part of my life. My parents have footage of me in a walker swinging a plastic club. If I didn't play golf, I would have been a baseball player. I could sit and watch baseball all day.

  • I've been trying to be the best representative for my school, my family, and the USGA as I possibly could.

  • I try to go out, check out the town, and have a good time. It's a life experience: not everyone gets the chance to see the world and play golf, do the thing you love while travelling.

  • I felt like, by the end of the week in the U.S. Amateur, I was never aiming at a flag; I was just hitting it at slopes and just letting the natural contours take over.

  • I'm just going to go out and play. At the end of the day, you are still hitting a little white ball with your clubs.

  • I don't mind playing or watching a movie or sitting down.

  • I'd like to just win everything. It would just be awesome.

  • I did some traveling as an amateur and always loved the different places I saw.

  • St. Andrews is the Home of Golf and the greatest course in the world. Any time you can win at St. Andrews would be special. It's every golfer's dream to win out here.

  • The biggest thing was just getting comfortable out there in front of all the people and just the whole major setting and how difficult major championships are, how patient... you have to be.
